China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 18 Finishing the sniper attack?

"Director Feng Xiaogang shouted to Director Chen Dong, the youngest director in the country, from afar that young people should not be too ambitious and learn to be down-to-earth."

"The new film by young director Chen Dong, who just won the Best Screenplay Award at the Cannes Film Festival and subsequently grossed nearly 40 million in domestic box office, was criticized by a famous domestic director."

"..."

From the crew of "Those Years", although Chen Dong was very busy during this period and had no time to surf the Internet, he also knew the news on the Internet.

He was depressed when Jiang Wen called.

"Hey, Brother Jiang Wen..."

"Haha, brother Chen, when did you offend Feng Xiaogang?"

"I want to know even if I'm riding a horse. I guess the director is unhappy with me." Chen Dong muttered.

"Don't let the bad things on the Internet get you into trouble. I've read your book, Brother, and it's as good as my "Sunny Days". If you shoot it well, the movie will definitely be good."

When Jiang Wen comforted him, he did not forget to praise his own movie. Chen Dong also laughed at this shameless spirit again.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Dong's depressed mood really dissipated a lot, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "After all, I am still a little short of the great director's face." '

Next, he stopped talking about things online and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the filming of "Those Years".

Although except for Chen Dong and Yan Danchen, the actors in this movie are basically students who have never debuted, but the filming progress is still very smooth.

Maybe this is also related to the fact that this movie doesn't require much acting skills.

"The sixty-sixth scene, seven shots and one try."

This is a scene where the hero and heroine have just walked out of campus and broke up in the rain because of a misunderstanding.

Of course, Chen Dong has removed the crooked tone of the original version.

"Pass!"

After three takes, Ning Hao, who was sitting in the director's chair, finally shouted.

At this point, it also indicates that most of the filming of the movie has been completed.

Chen Dong handed Yan Danchen a towel, then went to the director's control room and pulled up the lens, and found that the effect was indeed pretty good.

"Let's just shoot here today. The scenes will change tomorrow. The actors will go back and get familiar with the script."

The next day, Chen Dong received a call from China Film Group, saying that "Buried Alive" had received an invitation from the Golden Horse and asked if he wanted to participate in it.

To be honest, Chen Dong doesn't want to go. It's not that he looks down on the Golden Horse. The main reason is that he knows that this year's Golden Horse is the "world" of "Infernal Affairs", and most of the other movies are accompanying him.

Of course, Chen Dong did not refuse directly. He asked Jiang Wen about the attitude of the movie's leading actor.

"Go, why don't you go? My brother has always felt that my acting skills in "Buried Alive" are worthy of a Best Actor Award. If I can't win it at Cannes, then it will be the same at the Golden Marathon, haha..."

Well, now that this person has said this, what else can Chen Dong say? I just hope he doesn’t have a bad face during the introduction, haha.

Thinking about it this way, Chen Dong was quite looking forward to it.

Anyway, he himself doesn’t expect to win any awards at the Golden Horse. Of course, if there is one, he won’t refuse it.

With the filming of the seaside scenes completed, "Those Years" has also come to an end.

Many years later, at a class reunion, the male protagonist Ke Jingteng, played by Chen Dong, heard that Shen Jiayi was engaged and was going to marry an old man who could be her father. Memories of the young and beautiful scenes came flooding back...

The last scene:

Ke Jingteng kissed the heroine at her wedding.

This shot was taken five times before Ning Hao finally shouted.

It's not that Chen Dong deliberately took advantage of his senior sister, it's because the assistant director kept shouting "Ka".

"I announce that the movie "Those Years" has officially been completed!"

Warm cheers erupted from the scene.

They were really happy because for many of the actors in this show, this was their first show.

At the finals banquet, Yan Danchen was the first person to toast Chen Dong: "Director Chen, thank you very much for inviting me to play Shen Jiayi. I wish this movie will be a big hit at the box office. I also hope that Director Chen will find suitable roles in the future and take more care of students." Sister, haha..."

After saying that, Yan Danchen drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Chen Dong had a drink with him. Seeing that others were ready to imitate his example, he quickly stretched out his hand to suppress this momentum.

"There's no need to take turns to toast. I'm not a big drinker, so don't be so polite. Well, I suggest that we all have a drink together. The most important thing is that you eat well and drink well."

When the crew of "Those Years" held a wrapping party, news came out online that the film had been wrapped.

But no big director jumped out to step on him again, and the popularity lasted for a few days and then passed. Chen Dong still plans to finish the later part of "Those Years" in school.

It is now the end of August, and the start of the semester is not far away. A group of junior students from grade 03 are about to enter the campus, which also indicates that they will be promoted to sophomores as soon as the semester starts.

The old classmate had already communicated with him in advance, saying that during the interviews for the new students, he would be asked to go to welcome the new students, as a senior director.

Although Chen Dong complained in his heart about the school's face-saving work, he still had to give his old class face.

In the past few days before the start of school, Chen Dong basically stayed at Dongcheng Studio.

After all, he is Dongcheng's boss, so how can he really not care about him.

In the past month, Zhong Lifang has hired about ten people for the studio. Although there are not many people, they are already full-fledged even though they are small.

Chen Dong has personally seen this person's office efficiency in the past few days. She is very efficient and has begun to show the charm of a strong woman.

She is worthy of being the woman in his previous life who was able to help Pony Pictures become the top film and television company in the industry and become her own boss after resigning.

Of course, no matter how awesome she is, her vision is still not as good as that of a reborn person like Chen Dong.

So before Chen Dong left the studio, he gave Zhong Lifang a task.

This task is to hoard novel copyrights, whether they are domestic or foreign.

The Nortel Grade 03 admissions interview has begun.

Liu Yifei is still filming "Love Winner" at the moment, otherwise she would probably be roped in to welcome the newbie like Chen Dong.

The euphemistic name is to act as a facade.

Although there were no well-known celebrities this year, Chen Dong still saw many familiar faces.

For example, Jiang Jing, who will be selected as the Olympic baby by Zhang Yimou next year, and Mu Tingting, who plays Liu Wumei in "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang"...

Just like the beginning of the second semester of his freshman year, apart from attending classes every day, Chen Dong basically stayed in the school's post-production studio.

One month into his sophomore year, Chen Dong came to China Film Academy with a sample of "Those Years".

Perhaps due to the influence of many outsiders' negative opinions on Chen Dong's new film during this period, Han Shanping did not have much confidence in "Those Years".

It wasn't until...until he watched the samples of "Those Years" in the China Film Screening Hall that he felt more at ease.

I even think that the movie Chen Dong is called, oh, a youth campus-themed movie may be a dark horse like his "Buried Alive".

"Good, good, good!"

Han Shanping said hello three times in a row, and his eyes turned hot when he looked at Chen Dong.

Someone was so frightened that he tightened his grip and took three steps back.

Han Shanping is naturally not a gainer, he is just happy.

Because he recognized heroes with his keen eye and invested in Chen Dong, the youngest director in the country.

And there is a good chance that both investments will be huge profits.

These two achievements will undoubtedly add a lot of color to his next campaign for the position of China Film Boss.

"Director Xiao Chen, when do you plan to release this movie?"

"Let's do it during the Lunar New Year." Chen Dong had already thought about this issue before.

Since it is a youth campus-themed movie, the audience is naturally young people, especially college students. Of course, it will be much better if it is released during the winter and summer vacations.

Well, it's definitely not to compete with Feng Xiaogang's movie "Mobile Phone".

The mobile phone has been confirmed to be released on December 12th.

"Lunar New Year stall?" Han Shanping thought for a while and also thought about the audience's problem. The Lunar New Year stall is indeed a good choice. "Have you thought about the specific date?"

"I think December 12th is a good day."

Han Shanping nodded at first, but then he thought of the release date of "Mobile Phone", and then thought of Feng Xiaogang's "advice" to Chen Dong on the Internet some time ago.

What do you want to do?
  Sniper?
  Should young people be so angry?

"Ahem, Director Xiao Chen, Director Feng's "Mobile Phone" is scheduled to be released on December 12th. How about changing it again?"

"Director Han, you also said that "Mobile Phone" is scheduled to be released on December 12th, and I won't release it on the same day as it. It's a week late, so I won't change it. The main reason is that I really feel that December 18th will be released. It’s a good day.”

Damn, I have a headache.
